Final environmental report for proposed extension to Livermore now available

BART has completed the Final Program Environmental Impact Report (FPEIR) for an extension between the Dublin/Pleasanton Station and the City of Livermore. The FPEIR consists of a "Response to Comments" (Volume 2) which publishes BART's replies to public comments about the project together with the previously issued Draft Program Environmental Impact Report (Volume 1). Both volumes of the FPEIR are now available.

GETTING A COPY OF THE REPORT
To have a CD-ROM of the Response to Comments mailed to you, email the project or call (888) 441-0434. You can also visit selected local libraries in Livermore, Dublin, and Pleasanton to read a copy.

The public may also hear more about the project by attending the BART Board's regularly scheduled meeting on Thursday, July 1, 2010, where the FPEIR will be certified by the BART Board of Directors.
